To top it off, I ended up having to pay an additional $50 of my own money to cover the rest of the tab.
That's the last time I book lunch for people, and try to do something fun with my co-workers at lunch. Perhaps next time someone else can do the bookings and organize something; I'm done with that.

I would send an email to the 8 that didn't show up telling them that thier rudeness cost you $50 out of your own pocket to cover the tab. Don't ask for money, just wait to see who comes to you and apologies. The one that don't take a mental note and file it for future reference.
